I really enjoyed other Alice Oseman books so I dove into this one expecting the same thing. Unfortunately I didn't click with this one the same way I have with others. I struggled to connect fully with Tori, even though I like her character in other books. It kinda just felt like she was existing in different places for the whole book and never fully engaged with the plot herself. I also unfortunately found Michael quite awkward and irritating. Something about the way he barged in to the meal just felt quite icky to me and I think that overshadowed his other appearances.
